The whole thing is a scam. “Less wrong” is more wrong than average, with all the spammy cross postings, trigger warnings, randomly inserted reverence for their leader, etc. Scott Alexander blabbers about Bayes Theorem and the replication crisis but then he announces that GPT-3 is a human level AI based on 5 queries he ran. (Far worse then the genre of frequently low-effort ‘zero shot’ learning papers from arXiv.)
